Reason to hate Disney-
they mutilated me in the live-action Robin Hood.

Reason not to hate Disney-
the didn't mutilate me in the cartoon Robin Hood.

[Talierin]

Disney doesn't actually make the Pixar films, they just distribute them. Pixar itself is actually run by Apple, which is why it's awesome

I believe you are all unjustly prosecuting(sp?) the Disney legacy. And over what? A few movies that you didn't find enjoyable? Actors you did not like? I think you are all forgetting what Disney has given us. The dream that became the legend. I am not saying that those that are now in charge of the franchise havent made some mistakes. But i think that they are forgivable in light of the beauty disney made. Your critisizing the work of one man who took nothing and made magic. Yes i know he is dead but his spirit is still there even if we are not so quick to see it.

Yes I know they have put out some really bad stuff. but come on people. Is that really reason to hate Disney? I do not like the many of DaVinci's works but that does not me I do not consider him a master or admire him any less. Do not dismiss things simply because you do not like them find respect for their advances for the barriers they break. Come on people think about it.

How can you all hate the wonderful people who give us:

Maybe I should clarify that I love Disney movies from the Walt Disney era. But afterwards...well...let's just say I'll stick with Ralph Bakshi.

But the intention of this thread was to talk about "The Black cauldron", and I wanted an attention-grabbing title. I don't actually hate the Disney Company, some of the stuff they turn out is actually quite good.

However, I did severely loathe "The Black Cauldron" the worst adaptation of a book ever made.

[Phenix]

that's so true, proboly the worst misstake disney's ever done. but other than that one film there really ain't much to complain about...alteast not about the old movies, these new computer animated **** is a whole diffrent story though, one that i will not take up here(would break the none swearing rule:P)
